------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAGNOLIA-1532
                 URL: http://jira.magnolia.info/browse/MAGNOLIA-1532
             Project: Magnolia
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: 3.1 M1
            Reporter: Sameer Charles
         Assigned To: Sameer Charles
             Fix For: 3.1


Current implementation of JCR Authorization module forces you to duplicate 
users in JCR even if authentication source is external.

IMHO
- Authentication module should check for credentials (like it is now) in 
addition collect groups and roles together with details like user language, 
email etc..
- Authorization module can use above information to read access control list 
for this user

this will help us develope authentication modules for any data/directory source 
without having to duplicate users in JCR
